Words to Live By

A colleague recently sent this along to me, and I - being the courteous love that I am - am passing the "public service" along to all of you.

******************************As Ben Franklin said: In wine there is wisdom, in beer there is freedom, in water there is bacteria.In a number of carefully controlled trials, scientists have demonstrated that if we drink 1 liter of water each day, at the end of the year we would have absorbed more than 1 kilo of Escherichia coli, (E. coli) - bacteria found in feces. In other words, we are consuming 1 kilo of poop.

However, we do NOT run that risk when drinking wine & beer (or tequila, rum, whiskey or other liquor) because alcohol has to go through a purification process of boiling, filtering and/or fermenting.

Remember: Water = Poop, Wine = Health

Therefore, it's better to drink wine and talk stupid, than to drink water and be full of ****.

There is no need to thank me for this valuable information: I'm doing it as a public service.

************************************************** ****Happy to accept payment for this vital service in beverage form...

Please remember coffee in the morning, adult-beverage after 5pm. (And, please, do care to remember that it is always 5 o'clock somewhere...)
